Listed are men (only) born by 1801 (only) on the 1841 UK census having the surnames Cooley, Cooly, Coolley, Couley, Culy, and Culey. I've included one Coley, a name that probably needs a separate study. It's here because the link to Cooley families in the U.S. and Australia has been confirmed through Y-DNA testing. It's also here to illustrate the ultimate purpose of this study: to sort these families by the Y chromosome. Those haplogroups rendered in gray have not Y-DNA tested (as far as I know).
